Rachel's hands trembled as she quickly took off the dress, her breathing rapid with anger. Nicholas's words still echoed in her mind, it was calm, precise, infuriating.
The marriage ceremony has been extended to a longer date.
Extended.
Put Off.
Stopped.
No matter what word he chose, it all meant one thing: he was still in control. Still showing her that he was the boss in everything he did.
She felt this was another way for him to show her, he was still in charge. She was made to be excited in a wedding dress, then told the marriage had to be extended.
She couldn't be anymore annoyed.
She gritted her teeth, carefully pulling off the dress, almost aggressively, but she made sure not to tear it. The dress was too pretty, too expensive, to ruin because of her anger.
By the time she threw it back on the bed, her chest was rising and falling with rage. She had to face him. Right away.
She put on some casual clothes.
